Handle bar risers

Post by wyofisher »

Trying to decide what size of handle bar riser to get. No ape hangers here, just trying ease some serious shoulder pain while riding. I see that "Laser917" put on 3" risers a few years ago. My question is how much of a riser can I use before having to replace or risk crimping the wiring, hoses, or cables? I only want to buy them once. Looks like Rox has some nice pivoting ones for an arm and a leg...

on a 1200 you have very little to play with. Not to mention that the base of the bars are one size and the control sections are another.
